Excellent experience with the seller. This is the very good condition and I received a Japan made Fujifilm 18-55 lens which is the relatively high quality one in this series. I was satisfied with this shipping. Thanks.

This Fujifilm lens is one of the best affordable all purpose zooms made by any manufacturer.Ideal for anyone, like myself, wanting to jump into the Fujifilm system and start shooting without thinking of which focal lengths to invest in for primes.Sharp, fast enough and built very well albeit without weather resistance.

Like everyone else says....this isn't a kit lens to me! It's super high quality in both images & material. The focus ring is smooth, aperture ring is notched & clicks accurately & the OIS is amazing. The glass was also perfect. For the price & being used, I was very pleased.Word of advice, as I've seen multiple people on YT/elsewhere say the lens isn't as sharp as they hoped when used on a tripod. Most YT'ers I saw who had this problem forgot to turn off OIS. So I always try to remind anyone (and myself) to click that off for tripod usage!Images above were the only 2 I could find quickly. Both were shot on very overcasted days & paired with my only ND filter, a 10-stop. Pretty sure I was shooting at 40-50", f/8, & as low of an ISO as I could go (so around 80-160 I'd say). Apologies about the lack in details, but I'll hopefully remember to update this when I go back & confirm.

The item was over priced considering it had a unmovable spot on the inner glass of the lens. Phototronics sent me a defective lens. It was labeled as being in Very Good Condition, but it wasn’t.

Es un diamante en bruto por muy poco dinero en proporción a lo que rinde. Merece la pena hacerse con un objetivo así. Sobre todo por que tiene una focal bastante común para retrato y su 18 para paisaje. Muy nitido. Los acabados son magníficos, de objetivo de gama alta.

This is a serious lens built primarily from metal with etched markings and made in Japan. This is not a plastic "kit" lens like I used to have on my Nikon DSLR. Those lenses were just a step away from being a throw away lens. The Fujinon 18-55 is significantly better. I had compared it with Fuji's other kit type lens, the 16-50. Although that 16-50 is not a bad lens by any means, the 18-55 is much better. It has better AF, image stabilization, an aperture ring, and excellent bokeh. The optics are clearer and the 18-55 has better light sensitivity. For most of what I use this lens for on my X-T1 (street, basic portrait, landscape, vacation), this lens is perfectly fine. I am not a professional photographer by any means, I'm just an enthusiastic photography hobbyist who wants better pics than my phone will do.

Il prodotto è perfetto i tempi di consegna brevissimi, l'imballaggio molto accurato protegge efficacemente l'oggetto. L'unica nota negativa, se cosi si può dire, è che l'obiettivo non viene spedito nella scatola originale, ma sono inclusi tutti i documenti della garanzia italiana

This is a kit lens, but not perhaps in the usual sense. If one is used to for example the 18-55 VR Nikon kit lens, you may find a number of differences between this lens and the Nikon.The build quality of the lens is not plasticky in any way. The feel is solid, with substance in the sheer heft. It is smallish, with easy balance when mounted on Fujifilm's X bodies. None of this says anything about the images it is capable of producing -- that's where this lens excels. Image quality is such that some would think that this lens should cost substantially more were it one of the more popular brands.OIS works as advertised. The only draw back is the unmarked aperture ring, which seems unusual for Fuji.It is a really good lens value, especially if bought used on Amazon. Fujifilm X bodies are justifiably getting buzz on their ability to produce great images, and this lens belongs on them.

I shoot weddings for a profession and use Nikon when I work (D4, 24-70mm F2.8, 70-200mm f2.8 etc etc). However, when we took the family holiday to Europe this summer, I left the D4 home and packed the X-pro 1 instead. I didn't want to change lens often (35mm 1.4, 18mm f2.0 and 60mm F2.4) and so I bought this lens 2 days before i left. I'm glad i bought it! The zoom is great for quick framing and compositions, especially when you have kids that move around (,though of course the xpro1 really isn't a kids/sports camera!). For still portraits and travel shots, this lens was sharp and focused well. I think i had lot less mis-focused shots compared to my 35mm 1.4. In the end, this lens remained on my xpro1 for about 95% of the time during my month long trip. The lens is solidly built...metal casing which gives it a quality feel. The images where sharp and i had only some out of focussed shots. The image stabilization worked and paired with the xpro1.. I was able to do well in low light situations. Although it is not a constant aperture lens, i barely felt the F4 difference. In the end, i liken this lens to my nikon 24-70 F2.8 work horse. A keeper in my books. I will probably sell the 18 F2.0 and 60mm F2.4 as they get little use. At this price, I think it makes a great addition to most photographer's line-up.

I got this lens in anticipation of a family trip where i wanted the versitility in my field of view but did not want to carry multiple prime lenses around with my XP1. It performed great, snapping great family pictures and great candid street photos. Haven't used it in very low light situtation yet but it is sharp wide open for the whole focal range and the build quality is quite impressive. I think this lens would not be good for candids or street photograhpy (I would perfer the 35 or 18), but is a great addition as a cross over lens when you need to take group and portraits shots. Color and IQ are great i highly recomend it.The GoodThis lens is sharp, just as sharp as the 35 1.4, sharper than the 18, and the optical stabalizer works very well.This may seam weird, but i feel like the price is very reasonableThe BadAs expected this lens is much bigger than the primes, and it was unsetling when first shooting about the weight and size. I also found the zoom to be a blit loose, just a tab to easy to move, though this might be personal preference.The OddWhile i almost always shoot with the optical viewfinder in my xp1, i found the overlay box a bit gimmicky and not very accurate. I found my self using the eletronic view finder a lot more ( 75% of the time?) with this lens. It is hard to judge accurate framing even with the camera making approximate parallax and zoom estimates.
